2. Read the story and say why the Parkers have decided to buy a summer cottage.

A NEW SUMMER COTTAGE (After Margaret Mahy) Summer was coming. The Parkers were planning their rest. Mr Parker worked really hard this year and made quite a lot of money. One day the family had a lovely talk in the living room. They decided to buy a new summer cottage. “Dearest,” said Mr Parker to his wife, Mrs Parker, “we can buy a house at last and have a nice garden like the one we used to have in England.” “Oh yes, our garden was full of rose bushes. It was especially fantastic in spring. You know I love gardening.” “I can help you, Mum, plant and water the flowers, and weed the flower­ beds, can’t I?” asked Molly. She was so excited! “And I’ll assist the father in digging around the trees as well as white­ washing the trees and gathering fruit in autumn. I’ll also water the lawn in front of the house and rake the leaves in the garden in autumn. At last, I’ll have a room for a tree house!” Steve cried happily, for climbing trees was his hobby and he spent as much time as he could up among the leaves of the tallest trees in his native town. So the next week the Parkers started to look for a house that suited them. 27

Grammar Lab: Question Tags Use Question tags are short questions which are used at the end of the sentences if we are not absolutely sure about something and wish someone else to confirm it. Form To form question tags, we use the auxiliary verb of the sentence and the personal pronoun (I, he, she, it, etc.) which corresponds to the subject of the sentence. • We use a negative question tag in an affirmative sentence. You always help me, don’t you? You will help me, won’t you? • We use an affirmative question tag in a negative sentence. You haven’t done your homework, have you? • If there is a modal verb (can, could, should, etc.) in the sentence, we use the same modal verb to form the question tag. He can’t swim very well, can he? 28


• We use the auxiliary verbs do, does in the Present Simple and did in the Past Simple Tense (except for to be and to have). He works in an office, doesn’t he? You didn’t eat my ice cream, did you? • The question tag for I am is aren’t I? I ’m busy, aren’t I? • The question tag for Let’s is shall we? Let’s go, shall we? Pronunciation We pronounce question tags with a rising intonation (/) when we are not sure and expect an answer, or a falling intonation (\) when we are sure and don’t really expect an answer.

5. a) Complete the questions with the correct question tags.

1. Their house is all marble staircases and grand pianos, ... ? 2. Clark doesn’t often assist the father in repairing a car, . 3. The Davidsons made quite a lot of money two years ago, ....? 4.

A DAY WITH GRANDPA (by Mildred Pitts Walter) The smell of coffee and home-smoked ham woke Justin. His grandpa was cooking break­ fast downstairs. Justin jumped out of a bed and quickly put on his clothes. Grandpa had hot pancakes, apple jelly and ham all ready for the table. “They taste delicious, aren’t they?” grand­ pa asked. “Of course, they are,” Justin answered. After breakfast, grandpa cleared the table, preparing to wash the dishes. “Would you rather wash or dry?” he asked Justin. “Neither,” Justin replied. Grandpa said nothing. He slowly removed the dishes from the table. After that he washed each dish and rinsed it with care, too. After washing the dishes, grandpa swept the floor and then went upstairs. Justin stood around downstairs. He had a strange feeling of guilt and wished he had helped with the dishes. 3. a) Read and complete the sentences with the correct words from the text (Ex. 2). 1.

Grammar Lab: the Past Perfect Tense

We use the Past Perfect Tense when we talk about two different events at two different times in the past; one event ends before the second event happens: When mum came back home, the room wasn’t in a mess. Dan had cleaned it. Dan had cleaned his room before his mother came back home. 4. Look through the text of Ex. 2 and find the examples of the Past Perfect Tense in it. 4.1 5. Look, read and say which action took place first in the past and which action took place second.

Read and listen to a part of a lecture. What must you do to stay healthy?

When we are ill, we feel unhappy and sometimes have a high tempera­ ture. Very often the cause of illness and disease is dirt. Dirt is full of germs. They are very, very small but they are alive. They can get in through our nose or mouth and make us ill. They can get into our body through our skin, too. We must keep our body clean. We must wash our hands before meals. We must keep our fingernails clean. We must also think of our teeth and clean them twice a day. Germs can make teeth bad. A toothache is very painful. That’s why we must visit our dentist regularly to be sure that everything is OK with our teeth. Our body also needs fresh air to breathe. We must have plenty of clean air to stay healthy. We must go in for sport regularly. And we also must keep our home clean.

Grammar Lab: Modal Verbs: must / mustn’t; should / shouldn’t

• • • •

The modal verbs are a special group of auxiliary verbs. They are different from most other verbs in four ways: After modals we use infinitives without to (after other verbs we use infinitives with to.) Modal verbs have no -s on the third person singular (he / she / it form). We make modal questions and negatives without do. Modal verbs have no infinitives or-mg-forms. Instead we use other verbs.

We use the modal verb MUST when we mean: ‘This is necessary.’ Or ‘This is a good idea.’ I must get up early tomorrow. You must visit a dentist twice a year. In questions, we use MUST when we mean: ‘Is this really necessary?’ To make questions with MUST, we put MUST before the subject. Must you sleep eight hours a day? To make negative sentences we put NOT after MUST. You mustn’t do that. 66


We use SHOULD to talk about a good thing to do. You should be more careful to your health. You shouldn’t drink cold water. You can get a sore throat. Should I take these medicines three times a day? Look and say what you must / mustn’t or should or shouldn’t do to keep fit.

E x am p le : You should go in for sport regularly.

to go in for sport

to smoke

to eat too much

to eat many sweets

to go to bed late

to eat fruit and vegetabkes

5. Complete the sentences. Put in should or must. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

I can’t leave; I .....finish this report today. I ..... take more exercise, but I’m too busy. Y ou.....n’t smoke. W h a t.....I do to keep fit? What clothes..... I wear? - Put on a jacket.

Lesson 7 Listen and repeat.

bleeding

a small burn or scald

to press a clean piece of cloth

choking

to tie a bandage

a broken bone

to swallow smth. / to hit smb. on the back

a shock

to call an ambulance

2. Work in groups of five. a) Choose the text to read by yourself. b) Tell the information to the other members of your group.

WHAT SHOULD I DO? Sometimes people hurt themselves. If it happens you must know what to do. Then you will be very helpful. If you are not sure what to do, you should get help. 1. Bleeding A little bleeding can be a good thing. It helps to wash away the dirt and germs. Press a clean piece of cloth over the cut to stop the bleeding. When the bleeding stops, tie a bandage firmly but not tightly around it. Get help if bleeding doesn’t stop or if the cut is deep or if there is dirt in it. 2. A small bum or scald (A scald is like a burn but it is caused buy a hot liquid.) If it is a very bad burn or scald, get help at once. If it is a small burn or scald, first cool it. You can do this by placing it in a bowl of clean, cold water, or under a tap. 70


Then put a clean bandage on it to keep out the air. Do not put any oil or cream on it. They may contain germs. 3. Choking It happens if you swallow a large piece of food or a small toy. If it blocks the airway only partly, the person may still be able to breathe enough air to cough. If the cough is strong, the person may be able to cough up what he has swallowed. If he cannot, then you must help. Make him sit down on a chair with his head between his knees. Hit him sharply on the back with your hand. If he is still choking, get help quickly. 4. A broken bone If you think the person has broken a bone, do not move him. This might hurt him. Keep him still. Send for an ambulance. If the wound is bleeding, treat it as explained in text 1. If necessary treat for shock. 5. Shock Any accident is a very unpleasant thing. It usually makes people ill. If the face turns grey and the skin becomes cold and wet, we say that the person is in shock. Keep him warm. Wrap a blanket or a jacket around him and give him a warm drink.1 3. Work in groups of five. Share the information with your groupmates. Complete the table given below.

What happens Bleeding

The First Aid What to do next • press a clean piece of cloth • get help if bleeding over the cut doesn’t stop

A small burn or scald Choking A broken bone Shock 4. Check yourself about the things you have learnt from your friends. Say if the state­ ments are true or false.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

A little bleeding can be a good thing. If you use a piece of cloth it must be clean. If the bleeding doesn’t stop, tie a tight bandage around it. If there is a dirt in the wound, you must clean it. Hold a small burn or scald under a cold tap or place it in a bowl of cold water. Put a cool cream on a burn before you put on a bandage. If the person is choking, tell him to cough. If someone has broken a bone move him into a comfortable position and send for an ambulance. If a person’s skin turns grey and becomes wet and cold, keep him warm. 71


Conversation Lab 5. Speak in class. Talk about the situation when you had to help your friend. Say when and where the accident happened, what symptoms you paid attention to, and how you gave the first aid. Write a paragraph about the place where you usually get medical care. Describe a health problem you had when you came there and how your health improved. What were the recommendations of the doctors?

Lesson 8 1. Look at the pictures and say why the children need help.

E x am p le : Nick needs help because he has broken his leg.

2. Work in pairs. Take turns to ask and answer the questions about the pictures to Ex. 1. Ask about the following:•

• what made the children consult a doctor; • what the children suffer from (complain of); • whether the doctor examined the patient carefully; 72


• • • • •

whether the doctor gave any practical advice; what the doctor prescribed to the patient; what the patient should do; how the doctor helped; what medicines helped the patient recover.

janel3@gmail.com ann_flower@gmail.com Hi there

Dear Ann, This is just a short letter to let you know that I ’m in hospital - but don’t worry, it’s nothing serious, I have got a quinsy again. You know, I had so many sore throats last year. My throat was pretty sore after I woke up two days ago. I had a fever and my mum was worried and called an ambulance. I feel much better now but it’s still difficult for me to swallow and to speak. The doctor says I have to stay in hospital for a few days if there are no serious complications. I ’ve got lots of books and magazines, but even so, being in hospital is boring! I am not allowed to go for a walk, and I don’t know what to do with my time. Anyway, it’d be great to hear from you with any news. A funny letter would really cheer me up. Hope to see you very soon. Best wishes, Jane. 4. Answer the questions.

1. Virtual Reality (VR) is a computer-simulated environment. 2. VR can simulate physical presence in places in the real world, but not in the imagined worlds. 74


3. Virtual reality can recreate sensory experiences, which includetaste, sight, smell, sound, touch, etc. 4. VR is not useful in real life. 3. Read the article from a teenagers’ magazine and say how virtual reality affects the life of people who are ill.

VIRTUAL REALITY Have you ever imagined yourself in the place where you have never been before? Have you seen films like The Matrix? Have you ever heard of virtual reality or VR? Of course, you have, if you have played computer games. But have you thought that virtual reality can affect our lives in different ways? Not many of you can answer, “Yes”. Not many of you have also thought that virtual reality can be useful for people in some ways. One of the commonest uses of VR is in medicine. Scientists have managed to build VR machines which can help to train doctors in surgical techniques, but VR is also used in the operating theatre itself. For children who are seriously ill in hospital, there is now a VR game network that links seven hospitals. The children have a lot of fun but, apart from that, research has shown that the system helps to reduce their pain and loneliness. We can expect VR to become more and more a part of our lives. 4. Work in pairs. Take turns to ask and answer the questions.

I always try to become a part of adventure. I imagine myself living in the world created by actors or actresses. I can do this quite easily. I think I am a very attentive viewer. S te p h e n : My name is Stephen and I live in Manchester. Manchester is an old city in England. I go to school, and we often have school trips. Sometimes we go to the theatre or to the cinema with our teacher. I always follow a play or a film plot very attentively. Sometimes I agree with the way the main characters act, sometimes I don’t. I enjoy watching a theatrical performance more than watching films. I think that theatre actors and actresses are much closer to the audience than they are to the film viewers. P e te r: To my mind, watching a film is as exciting as watching a theatrical performance. Many people can find answers to their questions when they watch them. I also learn a lot while watching films and performances. I think that it is very important to be an active participant of a film or a theatrical performance you watch. The world of cinema and theatre gives us a chance to cast a glance at ourselves and become better. - — _______ Names Questions —------Likes visiting new places with the favourite characters.

Nowadays it is one of the best cinemas in our country. You can watch comedies, thrillers, horror films, animated cartoons and other types of films there. There are two halls in the Ukraina cinema, the Red Hall and the Blue Hall. The technical equipment of the halls is modern. In both halls there are the newest motion picture projectors. The halls are also equipped with special sound-absorbing panels, new pearl screens and comfortable seats. The seats feature special props for drinks and popcorn. In the foyer there are six monitors, a video projector and three bars with the variety of tra­ ditional snacks and drinks. The comfortable summer terrace is located on the second floor. The main thing that attract the audience is a unique calm and home­ like atmosphere. Do you like to go to the cinema? What is your favourite place to watch new films? Write me soon. Yours, Dan.

3. Read the review of “The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies”. Is it generally positive or negative?

A FILM REVIEW By Dan (1) The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014) is directed by Peter Jackson. It is the third in a trilogy of films that bring the masterpiece The Hob­ bit, by J.R.R. Tolkien, to life. It is a special-effects-packed science-fiction film. The stars are Ian McKellen, Martin Freeman, Richard Armitage and others. (2) The film tells the viewers about the adventures of Bilbo Baggins, Thorin Oakenshield and the Company of Dwarves. They have taken back their 88


homeland from the Dragon Smaug, but have suddenly released a deadly force into the world. Bilbo and Company are forced to engage in a war against an array of combatants. They have to keep the Lonely Mountain from falling into the hands of a rising darkness. The races of Dwarves, Elves and Men must either unite or be destroyed. (3) Although, this film is 144 minutes long, it never gets boring because the special effects are extraordinary. It’s one of the most expensive films ever made. However, the film is criticised for a lack of plot. Also, there are repetitive battle scenes which I find quite annoying. (4) I don’t usually enjoy films like The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, but I really liked this one for its energy, shorter running time and satisfying closure. 4. Agree or disagree with the following statements.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

The plot of the film is based on the novel by J.R.R. Tolkien. It is the last film in the series. The film is directed by Steven Spielberg. The events in the film take place in the past. Dan likes everything in the film. Dan recommends this film to his friends.

As it was a special occasion, we had some of the best seats in the stalls, and there was a great feeling of excitement while we were waiting for the curtain to go up. On my birthday I went to the theatre with my family. It’s about one man’s struggle to survive in the most terrible circum­ stances. We went to see the musical ‘Les Miserables’. The acting, music and singing were fantastic, and there were some really memorable moments. ‘Les Miserables’ is based on the novel by the French author Victor Hugo and is set in early 19th century France.

Their acting was enchanting and moving. The scenery on the stage was rich and impressive. The plot of the play was exciting and interesting. During the interval everybody discussed the actors’ play, the scenery and the music. All people enjoyed the performance greatly. The final scene was unforgettable. As soon as it was finished, the spectators stood up. The audience broke into applause, because the people liked the play, and the participants took many curtain calls. Moreover, all of them were presented with flowers. The company gave the truly remarkable play, which was of great educa­ tional value. As a result, it was a great success. To sum up, we spent wonder­ ful time at the theatre and went back home delighted and inspired. 3. Ask and answer the questions.

The apple orchard located on the side of the avenue near the studios was planted by the order of O. Dovzhenko himself. Since 1957, they were named in memory of Oleksandr Dovzhenko. The Oleksandr Dovzhenko Film Studios, named after the Ukrainian film producer, Oleksandr Dovzhenko, are large film production studios. They are located in Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine. Many memorial plates are located within the studios in memory of the many film producers which had once worked here.

I would run like crazy because I just had to win. 116

I could really run until I was dead on the sports field because I had to win. As long as I can remember, what I call the Spirit of Sport - the competi­ tive spirit was in my blood. I realized that sport was something fantastic. When I do sport, I must give everything I have. This is part of my cha­ racter.” S.

Today the area where the Roman London stood is known as the City of London. It is often called the City. It is the oldest part of London. In ancient times the City was surrounded by a great wall. 126


-f

The City of Westminster stood about 3 miles southwest of the City. As London grew, it spread far beyond its walls and took in the royal City of Westminster. Today the City of London is a famous financial district. But it also has some reminders of its colourful past. The great dome of St Paul’s Cathedral, for example, still towers over buildings in the air. The City of Westminster is the centre of the Britain’s government. It is the oldest part of the West End.

Reading Lab 2. Work in three groups A, B and C. Read your part of the brochure and take notes. Com­ plete the table given below.

Name of the Palace Dates of construction Who owned a palace Some interesting facts from its history The palace today London has been a seat of royal power for more than a thousand years and has more than its fair share of palaces and royal buildings to prove it. Each palace at different times was the main home of the king or queen and the royal court. A St James’s Palace It is the official residence of the sove­ reign and the most senior royal palace in the United Kingdom. It is located in the City of Westminster. It was built by Hen­ ry VIII in 1532. Henry didn’t really need another palace, but he was a great collec­ tor of grand houses - he had about sixty of them. After Whitehall Palace burned down, St James’s became the official royal residence. William IV was the last king to live there, but members of the royal family have houses and apartments within the palace today. The State Rooms at St James’s are still used for royal ceremonies. Today the palace houses a number of official offices, societies and collections. 130


B Kensington Palace The Royal Borough of Kensington was once a pretty village on the outskirts of London. In 1689, Queen Mary II bought a house there for herself and her husband William. In 1819, the Duke and Duchess of Kent moved there for the birth of their daughter, the future Queen Victoria. Vic­ toria lived at Kensington until she became queen in 1837. The palace is still a royal residence, and members of the royal family have apartments there. Parts of Kensington Palace are open to the public. At Kensington Palace you can see a fabulous collection of royal and court dresses and costumes dating from 1700s to the present day. C Buckingham Palace Buckingham Palace began its life as Buckingham House. It was built in the 1700s for the first Duke of Buckingham, but in 1762 the Duke’s son sold it to George III who wanted it as a family home. George IV thought it was not grand enough and set about rebuilding it. The work took so long he died before he could live in it. When Queen Victoria came to the throne in 1837, the palace was still half-finished. Victoria made more changes, but she and her family lived in it all her reign, as have all monarchs since. 3. »

The kids are smiling, laughing, shouting, jumping and exploring. They’re happy as they have their own running track as part of a social school project. 'k ir k

It continued to be rainy and grey all week. The sun came out for the half day on Friday, but the students still couldn’t enjoy it as the school track was too muddy. “How can we make it possible to use the track in any weather?” one boy said. That was how the students started to plan their project called “The Running Track”. Together with their PE and English teachers they outlined the steps of the project. Firstly, they identified the problem and gathered the necessary information on it. Then, they made a list of the things needed to solve it and discussed who they could address for help. After that they developed a class portfolio and presented it to the audience. “Creating that running track from scratch was not an easy task. Our role was quite simple.

I am always afraid of making a mistake. A t this school students work in pairs and in small closed groups. I think I will feel comfortable while learning English there.

Reading Lab <-3 * Read the text of Ex. 4 quickly and say why it is good to know English nowadays.

4. Read the text and complete the gaps (1-5) with the parts (A-E) given after the text. Language belongs to each of us. We live in and by language.

174


7. Speak in class. Introduce your ideas to your classmates. Use your mind map and the words: the international language, the language o f com puters, culture, penfriends, to com m unicate, etc.:

E x a m p le : Learning a foreign language takes time and dedication, but it’s a road to your success. The knowledge of a foreign language gives you a chance to exchange infor­ mation with people from other countries. Naturally, we want to know as much as possible about each other. When you travel to a different country, learning the local language will help you to communicate with local people. It can also give you a better understanding of their culture and way of thinking. A person competent in other languages can bridge the gap between cultures more easily than the one who doesn’t know it. Knowledge of foreign languages may also increase your chances of finding a good job, or of going on foreign business trips. Learning other languages gives you access to a greater range of information. I t ’s better to read books in original than those which have been translated into your language. Write what you think about the importance of learning English. Start like this:

More and more people nowadays learn foreign languages. English is one of the most popular languages in the world. Children and grown ups develop their communicative skills at school, language courses and summer language schools. I study English at school. We have... English lessons a week.

They have been playing tennis for three hours. Jane has been training for two months. The boys have been running for twenty minutes. He hasn’t been reading the newspapers for a long time.

VERB CONTRASTS Past Indefinite Tense and Present Perfect Tense We use the Past Simple Tense: 1) to talk about the specific time in the past: Builders finished their work yesterday. John went to Rome last year. 2) when the speaker is thinking of an action completed at a time in the past: Paper was invented in China. They grew many vegetables last year. We use the Present Perfect Tense when no specific past time is mentioned or when a connection is made between the past and the present: I have met that man before. John has already read that book. Have you ever visited London? I have never seen a camel. He hasn’t w ritten the letter yet.

Past Indefinite Tense and Past Perfect Tense We use the Past Simple Tense when we talk about the past, and follow the events in the order in which they happened: I read a book and ate a cake. We use the Past Perfect Tense to go back to an earlier time: I read a book I had got from the library and ate a cake my sister had made. 188


Present Perfect Tense and Present Perfect Continuous Tense We use the Present Perfect Tense for actions that happened at an unspe­ cific time in the past. I have already watched this football match on TV.

We use the Present Perfect Continuous Tense to emphasize that some­ thing has been happening repeatedly or continuously since an unspecific time in the past. I have been watching this football match for an hour.

R e m e m b e r! Some verbs do not usually use the continuous form. They are: know, see, like, hate, remember, want, love, etc. (See State Verbs on p. 185.) I ’ve seen this football match on TV.

QUESTION TAGS

Question tags are short questions which are used at the end of the sen­ tences. We use question tags if we are not absolutely sure as to something and wish someone else to confirm it. We add question tags to the sentences (negative or affirmative) to ask for confirmation or agreement. We form question tags by means of the auxiliary verb of the sentence and the personal pronoun (I, he, she, it, etc.) which corresponds to the subject of the sentence. • If the sentence is affirmative, we use a negative question tag. You will help me, won’t you?

• If the sentence is negative, we use an affirmative question tag. You haven’t done your homework, have you?

• If there is a modal verb (can, could, should, etc.) in the sentence, we use the same modal verb to form the question tag. He can’t swim very well, can he?

• If there is no auxiliary verb in the sentence, we use the auxiliary verb to do (except for to be and to have ). Thus, for a sentence which is in the Pre­

sent Simple we use do / does and for a sentence which is in the Past Simple we use did. He works in an office, doesn’t he? You didn’t eat my ice cream, did you?

• The question tag for I am is aren’t I? I ’m a pupil, aren’t I?

• The question tag for Let’s is shall we? Let’s go, shall we?

We pronounce question tags with a rising intonation when we are not sure and expect an answer, or a falling intonation when we are sure and don’t re­ ally expect an answer.

Question Tags (Short Answers) We give short answers to avoid repetition of the question asked before. We form positive short answer with: Yes + personal pronoun + auxiliary verb. We form negative short answer with: No + personal pronoun + negative auxiliary verb. E x a m p l e s: There’s a room for me in your car, isn’t there? - Yes, there is. He went to England last summer, didn’t he? - No, he didn’t. He didn’t go to London last year, did he? - Yes, he did. (Ні, він їздив.) / No, he didn’t. (Так, він не їздив.) 190


Short Responses

We often use auxiliary verbs in short answers when we don’t want to re­ peat something: Does he read books every evening? - Yes, he does. (= He reads books every evening.) Do you go to the library on Saturdays? - Yes, I do. (= I go to the library on Saturdays.)

We also use auxiliary verbs with so and neither: I play tennis every Sunday. - So do I. (= I play tennis every Sunday, too.) I never read newspapers. - Neither do I. (= I never read newspapers, too.) It is important to remember the word order after so and neither - verb before the subject. I go in for sports. So do my friends.
